I think many men feel they have a vested interest in BDSM. Other forms of romance don't impact them, and they are not around to complain."Romantic" fiction has never been realistic. I don't see any reason that this one should be. Troubled bad boy changed by the love of a good virginal woman is the storyline in every single romance I've ever read. That's why I quit reading them.
Tangentially, I once had a guy tell me he hated Prince (the artist formerly known as) because he gave thigh-high boots a bad name. Women would react to this dude as if he would be able to talk dirty to them like Prince does in his songs.
